horizontal, parallel_outside, horizontal_outside, parallel_above, parallel_fully_outside
controls the placement of angular dimensions in drawings. if set to "horizontal," displays text of angular dimensions horizontally at all times, centered between the leaders (equivalent to the value "horizontal" for the drawing setup file option "text_orientation"). if set to "parallel_outside," displays text parallel to the leader lines, regardless of their orientation (equivalent to the value "parallel" for the drawing setup file option "text_orientation"). if set to "horizontal_outside," displays text horizontally outside the dimension. if set to "parallel_above," displays text parallel to the dimension arc, but above it. if set to "parallel_fully_outside," displays text of angular dimensions (with a plus/minus tolerance) parallel to the leader lines. for more information and an illustration, see how to display dimension text symbols on page 6 - 38.
